Disallowing to specify number of shards & replicas at index creation time?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Good day,

Is it possible to make Elasticsearch ignore number of replicas & number of shards specified by user during index creation? I'm interested to control these parameters on Elasticsearch side only (using templates), overriding any values that may be specified by clients.

Can it be done?

No there's not. The only way would be to restrict creation of indices all together.
